Lady Augusta could not forbear smiling at this idea; and thus, by an unlucky stroke of humour, was the grand event of her life decided. Marmontel's well-known story, called Heureusement, is certainly not a moral tale: to counteract its effects, he should have written Malheureusement, if he could. Nothing happened to disconcert the measures of Lady Augusta and Dashwood.
The sarcasms of Swift were not without justification; for crazier analogies than that between Andromache and Andrew Mackay have been gravely insisted on by persons who, like the author of "Amilec," believed that the true secret of philosophizing est celui de rêver heureusement.
In speaking of the different natural agents which, as well as the land, co-operate with the labours of man, he observes, 'Heureusement personne n'a pu dire le vent et le soleil m'appartiennent, et le service qu'ils rendent doit m'etre paye. And, though he acknowledges that, for obvious reasons, property in land is necessary, yet he evidently considers rent as almost exclusively owing to such appropriation, and to external demand.
"Shall you?" "Oh, immensely! as soon as ever we get in sight of the sea: I begin, indeed, to feel it already. I shall go below; and won't I order about that fat odious stewardess! Heureusement je sais faire aller mon monde." Down she went. It was not long before the other passengers followed her: throughout the afternoon I remained on deck alone.

Foolish, very foolish it is I grant you, and if anything was prevalent enough with me to relinquish so old and pernicious a practice, it would be your condemnation of it.

Je ne doute pas que Mademoiselle votre fille ne s'y associe, car nous connaissons et nous apprecions les sentiments dont vous nous avez donne, tons les trois, tant de preuves. Ma femme, qui depuis dix ans a perdu trois soeurs, deux freres, et deux fils, est, comme vous le pensez, bien accablee; mais les enfants qui lui restent l'obligeront heureusement a reprendre a la vie.

Dieu me fir encore choisir la bonne, laquelle me conduisit au bazar, où sont les marchandises et les marchands. Je m'adressai au premier chrétien que j'y vis, et ce chrétien se trouva heureusement un des espinolis de Gênes, celui-l

Depuis lors je n'ai plus doubte de mon salut.
Usually, he said, he played solitaire while waiting for the Germans, but with houses tumbling about one's ears, he much preferred company. "And my wife and I are old people.
